In this paper, we present a 0.3 V body-driven operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) that exploits a biasing approach based on the use of a replica loop with gain. An auxiliary amplifier is exploited both in the current mirror load of the first sta...

In this paper, we introduce a novel tree-based architecture which allows the implementation of Ultra-Low-Voltage (ULV) amplifiers. The architecture exploits a body-driven input stage to guarantee a rail-to-rail input common mode range and body-diode load...

In this paper, we present a novel operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) topology based on a dual-path body-driven input stage that exploits a body-driven current mirror-active load and targets ultra-low-power (ULP) and ultra-low-voltage (ULV) appl...
